Where does astronomy come from?
Astronomy (from the Greek words astron meaning star and nomos meaning law) is the scientific study of central bodies (such as stars, galaxies, planets, moons, asteroids, comets, and nebulae) phenomena outside the Earth's atmosphere (such as supernovae explosions, gamma-ray bursts, and Cosmic microwave background radiation.) It concerns the development of physics, chemistry, meteorology, and movement of central bodies as well as the design and development of the universe.
Astronomy is one of the oldest Sciences. Asian people use the positions of the Stars to navigate and to find when was the best time to plant crops. Astronomy was very similar to astrophysics. A related subject, physical cosmology. is concerned with studying the universe as a whole, and the way the universe changed over time. Astronomy is not the same as astrology, the belief that the patterns the stars and the planets may affect human lives.
Since the 20th century there have been two main types of astronomy, observable and theoretical astronomy. I'm cervical astronomy uses telescopes and cameras to observe or look at the stars, galaxies and other astronomical objects. Theoretical astronomy using math and computer models to predict what should happen. The two often work together, the theoretical predicts what should happen and the observational shows whether the prediction works

Astronomy came from the Greeks and that the plants were named after the Greek gods Venus is Aphrodite in Greek. Jupiter is Zeus. Mercury is Hermes. We know the plants by their Roman names but their names where originally Greek.
Did you know that your star signs (yes you have more than one) come form the Greek gods?
